Just some of the quotes from in this thread. You people in this forum are honestly the most hateful and ignorant bunch of people that I have ever encountered. You are willing to actually destroy the live viewing numbers as well as the TV ratings by turning it off when "the other game" as you like to call it comes on. Do you know what age you seem like when you call it "the other game". Attitudes like this will kill the whole starcraft scene in Korea

I know that you may not like SC2 but have you ever considered that it might actually improve once your heroes come over and start to implement new strategies and techniques, not to mention the possibility of the entire game being changed in HoTS? We don;t sit in the SC2 forums and hate on BW because its an old game with terrible graphics and its outdated( not saying its any of these things, just saying that these are the arguments that could be used.)

I thought you might have even been excited to see some b-teamers make a name for themselves in the new game...

Complete bunch of short-termists. Tune in to both games, support the league, by supporting both games you support your game as without the viewing numbers and audience, then to be honest pro-league will be finished anyway.

I'm sorry if i caused offence but i needed to get this off my chest.

you do realize I watch both SC2 and BW right?

I'm just being realistic that when players need to practice 2 games at the same time, the quality of games will be terrible, I've already seen the effect of it so far so I'm not wrong.

you are the one being hateful and ignorant of obvious facts.

I didn't even say that I wouldn't watch either, I will watch to support my team, but thats the only thing I'm running on going into this season.

honestly, if kespa/blizzard wasn't force-feeding long-time bw fans something that honestly has nothing to do with bw except for its name, we wouldn't really be acting like this.

kespa is basically just taking advantage of our long-time ties to the game and its pros to garner viewership for its new-found toy from which they wish to make a profit. and by this, i'm referring to the whole bw-sc2 hybrid fiasco.

not only is kespa essentially forcing bw fans to watch something they aren't interested in (by taking advantage of our ties to the previous bw scene), but they're achieving this through a method that'll ultimately ruin the quality of both bw and sc2 games since pros can no longer exert their utmost effort into any one game.

i'd rather watch the current highest-level sc2 (if only bw is not an option) than a combination of half-assed sc2 and bw but i know i'll tune in to watch jaedong/stork/flash/bisu/fantasy/etc. playing sc2 nevertheless b/c of how much of an emotional connection i have to these players, as we all do. and kespa knows this oh so well and they're willing to severely hurt the quality of proleague so that they can gain viewership and sponsors ($$$)

this is like the scenario where you know a hot girl is hitting on you only for your status/money but you're still going to play along with it b/c physical attractiveness isn't so easy to simply turn down.

IMHO you fail understand the key concept of why its called "the other game". There has been a huge number of threads talking about what BW fans think of sc2 and a lot of SC2 fans arguing for esports, for this, for that and whatever people want to argue, so we should not be doing this here again. Im just saying that before calling people ignorants and other stuff you should understand fully why such comments exist in the first place. I watch both games and I dont mind watching SC2 players play SC2...but having BW die to have more SC2 doesnt serve any purpose other than having more sc2. While having more sc2 isn't bad in my eyes, having more sc2 over BW isn't a good thing. I ended up almost going there but tried to only state my opinion in a polite way without entering the argument about support or no support. I hope this doesn't steer people off topic

Now on topic. Im sad CJ plays so "early". Im probably not going to be able to wake up early enough to watch those games damn you schedule people.

EDIT: And if a vote should occur, I vote for two threads. In the long run it wont matter since people that make some LR threads unreadable will just jump from one to the other but at least for now I hope to be in a LR with familiar faces to BW when watching BW games without every other post being about cheese, imba, allins, scrub, noob, you dont know the game, this is superior to that, get of our game, etc (note that I tried to include bad posts from both sections).

Well here it comes again. SC2 will improve..lol. SC2 is flawed beyond what they could improve with an expansion. The main flaw of SC2 is the engine, and they will never change that. Whether you agree with this is up to you, but you need to understand that in our view SC2 will never be able to replace BW, and for completely logical reasons.

Complete bunch of short-termists. Tune in to both games, support the league, by supporting both games you support your game as without the viewing numbers and audience, then to be honest pro-league will be finished anyway.

I'm sorry if i caused offence but i needed to get this off my chest.


honestly, if kespa/blizzard wasn't force-feeding long-time bw fans something that honestly has nothing to do with bw except for its name, we wouldn't really be acting like this.

kespa is basically just taking advantage of our long-time ties to the game and its pros to garner viewership for its new-found toy from which they wish to make a profit. and by this, i'm referring to the whole bw-sc2 hybrid fiasco.

not only is kespa essentially forcing bw fans to watch something they aren't interested in (by taking advantage of our ties to the previous bw scene), but they're achieving this through a method that'll ultimately ruin the quality of both bw and sc2 games since pros can no longer exert their utmost effort into any one game.

i'd rather watch the current highest-level sc2 (if only bw is not an option) than a combination of half-assed sc2 and bw but i know i'll tune in to watch jaedong/stork/flash/bisu/fantasy/etc. playing sc2 nevertheless b/c of how much of an emotional connection i have to these players, as we all do. and kespa knows this oh so well and they're willing to severely hurt the quality of proleague so that they can gain viewership and sponsors ($$$)

this is like the scenario where you know a hot girl is hitting on you only for your status/money but you're still going to play along with it b/c physical attractiveness isn't so easy to simply turn down.


I'm sure KeSPA would rather a thriving BW scene then what we've got ahead of us, but without sponsors, that isn't possible. They need to switch to something or slowly collapse, it's that simple. Even though this mock-up system we have for the next proleague seems like a farce to many, it was their only option to build a sustainable future. Do you feel you have been betrayed because you'd rather KeSPA fold over completely than seek prosperity in a new game?

Do people honestly feel like KeSPA had any other choice here? If I'm misinformed then I apologize

So much hate from the BW crowd I love BW been watching for years but the fans around here.... Its really sad. Its like if you had a house and when its time to move out instead of clean it up and leaving in peace.. you burn the house down. Thats all I hear from 90% of the BW crowd. Burn the fucking house down. Screw the esports scene screw all the the teams and all the players. No ones allowed to play sc2, no one is allowed to continue their career in sc2. Its either BW or the whole scene has to shut down and everyone has to quit. Like a bunch of children that will break a toy before let other kids play with it.

it's so sad becuase if this was normal proleague I would of been so fucking pumped to have a whole day of BW to watch :\

I actually like the way they set up the format. This way, I can watch the first 3 games and be done, rather than being forced to watch sc2 if they interposed them. A bit disappointed the ace match goes to sc2 though.

Also, I support the idea of separate threads.

This might not be as bad lets try to stay positive. Worst case scenario you stop watching when the "other" game comes up




Just some of the quotes from in this thread. You people in this forum are honestly the most hateful and ignorant bunch of people that I have ever encountered. You are willing to actually destroy the live viewing numbers as well as the TV ratings by turning it off when "the other game" as you like to call it comes on. Do you know what age you seem like when you call it "the other game". Attitudes like this will kill the whole starcraft scene in Korea

I know that you may not like SC2 but have you ever considered that it might actually improve once your heroes come over and start to implement new strategies and techniques, not to mention the possibility of the entire game being changed in HoTS? We don;t sit in the SC2 forums and hate on BW because its an old game with terrible graphics and its outdated( not saying its any of these things, just saying that these are the arguments that could be used.)

Well....... just to be clear I said "other game" because I didn't want to mention either SC2 or BW. I like both of them ......

Sorry If I sounded hateful my post was targetting both SC2 fans and BW fans

It's very cult-like :/. Guess it's also human to do so. I'm lucky that I can find enjoyment from both games.

while the korean audience may not like or receive sc2 as well. the fact is bw pros playing sc2 has the novelty factor and star power enough for the audience to overlook their negative views towards sc2 and not boycott or leave the studio when sc2 comes on.

I think the same players will play both games in the match. So, if Fantasy goes out second for the BW set, he will have to go out second in the SC2 set, but anyone can come out for the ace match if it gets that far.

Is that correct or did I misunderstand?

Or is it just three players (not necessarily all the same or all different) for each set of games, then in order to qualify for playing you must have played the opposite game in your previous match?
